This week, Hollywood really took some time off from making announcements in the days in between Christmas and New Year's. So, it's time for the obligatory Yearly Ketchup; twelve major stories that broke this year, one for each month. This doesn't necessarily cover all of the big stories that broke this year, as some months were bigger than others. An emphasis was made in this particular list to focus on either new projects, or ones that got new life after years of development. And finally, in addition to the potential big blockbuster type movies, I made room for the new projects for a couple of major directors, as well as a couple of projects that some will definitely think are "Rotten Ideas." These are the news stories that made the Weekly Ketchup all the more fun to follow along with each month.

Hollywood has mostly taken the week off for Thanksgiving, so that they can all enjoy their vegan turduckens down by the pool, no doubt. Nature abhors a vacuum however (even Hollywood follows MOST of the laws of physics), and so even in a light week there's still news to report, such as franchise news for Zombieland, Kull and The Howling, and casting news for The A-Team, UFO and Thor.
